i dont realyl like the albino, i find it lacking on lower freq. which results a thin sound :\ they should realy add a sub oscilator in the next version dont you think?
vaz modular - i love it ,sounds totaly analog
discovery - nice nord lead emulation
and bass station from time to time
cs80v only a beta version but it sounds great! totaly recommend it
moog modular v -use it from time to time,too havey on my computer.. :(
and lots of plug-in effects packs... mainly "waves" company and the lexicon hardware delay unit software version p84
also some TC plug ins
oh sorry were you asking only about softsynths? :o

from what you see here my studio is mainly software based.

I agree on the sub osc. I can't wait for it to have the arp function 8O
I beta vsts as well, so maybe I will get a copy of albino, and let you all know how the new version is :wink:

how is atmosphere ?
is it as good as "they" say it is? :)
worth geting a copy of it?

I use Kontakt and Wavelab.

atmosphere is the shit hands down........buy you a copy when you can :wink:

Native Instruments Reaktor Sessions. NI have produced some innovative software. Reaktor (the full version) is a fully modular soft synth platform which allows the design of virtual sound processors (synths, fx, etc.) from basic building blocks - filters, oscillators, grainclouds and so on.

I've got neither the time, patience nor inclination to configure my own synths in Reaktor, so I got Reaktor Sessions which is basically the Reaktor sound engine with a library of ready-built synths and other 'ensembles' for quite a lot less money. You also get access to the online user library which has over 1000 ensembles.

The ensembles range from straight emulations of well known synths to sequencers and sample choppers and to the more esoteric such as granular synthesis devices and the like. The sound quality, though obviously dependant upon the soundcard used, is exellent, and much improved on earlier versions. I often get lost in it for hours.

NI's customer support, though, is somewhat lacking - it took them over a week to reply to an email and judging by the user forum this isn't unusual. I bought the precursor to Sessions, Dynamo, and was a little unhappy at the upgrade price, but I'm glad I shelled out for it now.

Reaktor has quite a fan base as does a lot of NI stuff. There was favourable review in Sound on Sound recently which is worth reading for more detail.
